Ye Xiao really wanted to take out the pig's head and ask if it was the head of that goblin brother's younger brother, but considering the other party's previous sensitive attitude, he was afraid that the other party would think that he was humiliating them.
He could even picture the other person's response: "How dare you call my brother a pig! You damned bastard, I'm going to kill you!"
I decided to let it go; there was no need to provoke them.
Ye Xiao casually kicked the pig's head into the corner, and suddenly noticed that Su Qianyun, while the two idiot brothers were looking for their heads, quietly helped up the wandering girl who had just been sitting in the corner and crept towards the door.
Are these two trying to escape?
Ye Xiao noticed that they even tried to sneak past him in the dark, but unfortunately, Ye Xiao's senses were too sharp, and these little tricks couldn't escape his notice.
"Hey," Ye Xiao whispered.
"Alas!"
To Ye Xiao's surprise, the aloof-looking girl actually let out such a kitten-like exclamation.
He chuckled awkwardly at the resentful look in their eyes. "I just want to ask what you're doing."
“You…” Su Xiyun’s usually cold expression crumbled a bit. Was this person serious about asking such a question at a time like this?
"Hey!"
The next moment, Bachcher, who was at the other end of the room carrying an oil lamp, also roared out, because the noise near the door had also startled him.
"Miss Su, are you going to leave with this body? Although you are a distinguished guest, shouldn't you give me an answer about what happened to my brother's head?"
"I..." Susie Yun was about to faint, and turned to glare at Ye Xiao, "Thanks to you, we can't leave now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy iron door suddenly closed automatically, and the iron at the edges became like liquid, spreading outwards and sticking to the surrounding walls.
Now the entrance is essentially completely blocked off.
"No one is allowed to leave until I figure out what's going on here!" Bachcher's roar, accompanied by the flickering light of his lantern, grew louder as he approached. "Miss Su, I don't believe I've treated you badly, so what exactly do you mean by this?"
Susie Yun didn't answer. She simply leaned the girl she was carrying against the wall, then drew her long sword from her waist and looked at Bachcher with a cold gaze.
That seemingly invincible giant was already difficult to deal with. And this Batchell, as a doctor at Samuel's clinic, would only possess even greater power.
"Hey, he seems to have finally realized it." Ye Xiao smiled.
“But before I deal with him, I will kill you first,” Su Xiyun said coldly.
"What does this have to do with me??" Ye Xiao was dumbfounded.
"Didn't you remind him?! Stop making excuses, you're definitely in cahoots with them!!" Without another word, Su Xiyun suddenly swung her knife at Ye Xiao.
Then she suddenly felt a pain in her wrist, followed by a soft thud as a long sword fell to the ground.
"Don't talk nonsense." Ye Xiao casually knocked Su Xiyun's knife away and picked it up. "Holy crap, epic."
Ignoring Ye Xiao's astonishment, Su Xiyun suddenly froze.
My knife... just now, this guy knocked it away! ? ?
No, how could this be?
The light was too dim; she couldn't even see how the man did it.
Even though she doesn't use any skills, she is still a top swordsman ranked third on the player swordsman leaderboard.
Without even raising a finger to use a skill, the opponent effortlessly disarmed her in complete darkness! ? ?
What level of swordsman is this? Master? Grandmaster?
Could this guy who hasn't shown much skill actually be the strongest of the three?
That guy is way too cunning!
Su Xiyun's heart sank to the bottom. She had originally hoped to make a desperate gamble and kill the weakest one first, but she never expected to be defeated by the opponent as soon as she drew her sword.
"Miss Su! I'm asking you a question!!" Bachcher had already walked up to Su Xiyun, and he was furious that she had remained silent.
"So, Miss Su, you're not with this goblin?" Just then, Ye Xiao suddenly asked casually.
"Of course not!" Susie Yun gritted her teeth, clutching her wrist. "What exactly do you want to ask!?"
"Oh my, you should have said so earlier if we weren't together. You made me hesitate for so long."
"How am I supposed to know which side you're on?!" Susie Yun snapped. "I would have run away long ago if you hadn't interfered!!"
"Okay, it's my fault." Ye Xiao honestly admitted his mistake.
Ye Xiao truly possesses unique talent in certain areas, capable of making a girl who is usually as cold as ice blush to the point of exploding with warmth using simple language.
"You two dare to ignore me?!" Bachcher roared, grabbing at the wall with his bare hand. The stone wall seemed to melt into his palm. "Do you know the alchemy of the Molten Dwarves? All matter in my hands can become ironware to take your dog's life!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the murky liquid in Bachcher's hand transformed into a silver-gray metal cone and stabbed fiercely at Ye Xiao.
Put Susie Yun aside for now; he simply couldn't tolerate this bastard any longer!
"Why is it me again?" Ye Xiao sighed softly.
"Watch out!" Su Xiyun warned, seeing that Ye Xiao hadn't reacted at all to the metal cone thrusting towards him.
The next moment, she saw the metal cone pierce straight through Ye Xiao's head without drawing a single drop of blood.
A clone... no, an afterimage!?
Susie Yun's mouth opened slightly, and when she turned her head, she saw that Ye Xiao, wearing a trench coat, was already standing next to Bachcher, still holding the knife that he had taken from her.
Blood was still stained on the blade, but Ye Xiao flicked it away, and it all dripped onto the ground.
When... what kind of speed is this?!
Su Xiyun's eyes widened.
Bachcher, who had been furious just moments before, now had cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
The pipe he was holding in his mouth was taken away by Ye Xiao, who looked sleepy, with two fingers and flicked away.
"Smoking is bad for your health, goblin."
As those languid words fell, Bachcher's limbs snapped off like cucumbers and fell to the ground along with his pipe.
Chapter 139 The Reckless Man
Bachcher let out a piercing scream as his small frame crashed to the ground.
"You can't use your supposedly amazing alchemy skills anymore?" Ye Xiao pointed with his index finger, which was adorned with a spell ring. A rope, like a snake, snaked along the ground and wrapped tightly around Bachcher's body.
To facilitate disguise, Ye Xiao only wore the ring on his hand, which could be used as a simple staff to cast spells, a gift from Greta earlier.
This is why Ye Xiao just wanted to use Su Xiyun's knife to kill the enemy, because he didn't have a knife with him.
However, at that moment, a headless, muscular figure suddenly appeared in the shadows behind Ye Xiao.
Compared to the slender Ye Xiao, Pige's bulk resembled a mountain in the dim light, and he swung the meat cleaver in his hand toward Ye Xiao's neck.
Seeing this, Su Xiyun hurriedly cried out to warn him, but Ye Xiao didn't even turn his head. He simply flicked his wrist and casually twirled the knife, and the arc of cold light instantly severed the thick arm holding the meat cleaver.
The massive creature seemed oblivious to pain, and despite the splattering blood, it reached out its other hand to grab Ye Xiao.
But Ye Xiao simply flashed around from under the big guy's arm to behind him, and raised his hand to stab the tip of his knife into the guy's back.
After dealing with arthropod cultists so many times, Ye Xiao roughly understood why this guy could move even without a head.
He flicked his wrist, and the sharp tip of the knife pierced through Piggy's back. He then turned the blade and ripped a bloody gash down his spine.
In the blinding crimson light, Ye Xiao used the tip of his knife to slash out a long, black worm shaped like a giant centipede from the back of the other party.
The moment the worm detached from the large body, the massive creature collapsed as if it had lost its soul.
"Damn it! Pig!! You bastard!!" Bachcher roared from the pool of blood, but without his hands and feet, all he could do was writhe on the ground like a maggot.
"Don't rush, it'll be your turn soon." Ye Xiao cut the long worm with its hard shell in two with a single stroke, then used his staff to summon flames that burned it to ashes.
Ye Xiao had already experienced the tenacity of this thing's vitality from several arthropod believers he had captured.
It can survive even if it's cut in half; the only way to kill it completely is to burn it through the gap created by the cut.
"Um, is this the infiltration plan you were talking about?" A childish voice suddenly rang out in the darkness.
"Oh, you're awake?" Ye Xiao looked at the kitten perched on her shoulder in surprise. "I can't help it. They attacked first, I was just acting in self-defense."
"How am I supposed to sleep with you jumping around like that?" The kitten yawned, then looked at the two girls at the door with astonished expressions. "Which lover rescued you this time?"
"Your cat... can talk?" Susie Yun asked in astonishment.
"You didn't expect that, did you? It's mainly because I taught him well... Hey!" Ye Xiao brushed away the kitten's paw that was slapping his face. "Let's head back first. Your partner looks like he needs some treatment."
“She’s not my partner.” Susie Yun carried the unconscious Xiaolian on her back. “Besides, there might be other living people hanging from that ceiling.”
"Then we'll have to notify the Imperial Guards to seal it off once we get out. I can't carry so many people myself." During the conversation, Ye Xiao continued to urge the two of them to go upstairs and leave this place.
"Aren't we going to kill him?" Susie Yun looked at Bachcher, who was crying in a pool of blood, and asked softly.
"Um, you can leave this here."
Ye Xiao originally came to gather further information about Samuel's clinic, so killing this key guy would mean his trip was in vain.
But it's inconvenient for him to carry around on his own. The image of carrying a dwarf who is spitting blood and howling on his back on the street is just too abstract to contemplate.
So he figured he could just leave it here and wait for Ella to deal with it later.
Most measures to stop the bleeding are probably unnecessary. After all, Bachcher's brother can still live a normal life even without his head, while Bachcher is only missing limbs, so it shouldn't matter much.
But Ye Xiao didn't know that his answer startled Su Xiyun, causing her to unconsciously quicken her pace.
Cutting off hands and feet and leaving them there to die... This kind of brutal method suggests the person isn't mentally stable. It's best to stay away from them.
The girl in black swallowed hard, thinking to herself.
The three of them quickly walked up the stone steps and out to the tavern lobby, where the atmosphere was still chaotic and noisy.
But the bartender at the door became alert when he saw the three people suddenly come out from the side door: "Huh, why didn't Dr. Batchell come up with them?"
"The doctor... he has something to do." Su Xiyun, who was walking at the front, said perfunctorily, without stopping, wanting to leave as soon as possible.
"Wait! Wait!" But the bartender wasn't about to let them get away so easily, and decisively blocked their path. "Miss Su, where did that girl on your back come from? And what's with the guy behind you holding a knife? I can't let you go until you explain this clearly!"
As the bartender spoke, he waved his hand, and nearly half the people in the lobby stood up, staring menacingly at Su Xiyun and her group.
The unsuspecting patrons, upon seeing this, panicked and fled out the door.
Clearly, without a good explanation from Susie Yun, they wouldn't be able to leave.
Looking at the nearly forty or fifty enemies with fierce eyes in the hall, Su Xiyun's forehead was slightly sweaty, and her brain began to race as she thought of a response.
These people look like they're from Samuel's clinic. They don't know what's going on down there. Maybe I can fool them with some lies...
Before Su Xiyun could finish speaking, Ye Xiao, who had come up from behind, suddenly slashed out with his sword.
Blood gushed from the bartender's head, which was wide open, and he smashed the bottles standing on the bar counter to pieces like a bowling ball.
"What are you doing!?" Susie Yun was dumbfounded. They could have at least tried to communicate first, so why did he just start attacking?!
“This guy doesn’t have much of a storyline, let’s just skip the dialogue.” Ye Xiao pointed his knife at the crowd, “All of you come at me together, I’m in a hurry.”
"kill him!!!"
The people in the bar immediately turned on each other, some brandishing knives and others drawing firearms, and the scene instantly descended into chaos.
Outside the tavern, a bard was playing music and singing. The melodious music drifted through the window along with the singing, creating a noisy symphony with the clash of swords and the roar of guns.
These are all followers of the Mother of Arthritis. Although they are not as powerful as the players who had transplanted the Holy Relics and attacked Isaac's mansion before, they are still far stronger than ordinary adventurers of the same level.
However, it made little difference to Ye Xiao. He moved through the flying sparks and chaotic cold light, cutting down enemies one by one as easily as chopping melons and vegetables. What was originally a group fight with many against one turned into a one-sided massacre where he chased after a group of people and killed most of them.
Before the fight started, the people in the tavern locked the doors and windows in case Ye Xiao and his group escaped. This directly led to the fact that the last thing these unlucky guys did before they died was to press their bloody handprints onto the door or glass window.
As the entire hall fell silent amidst the pool of blood, Ye Xiao kicked open the locked door and waved to Su Qianyun behind him, saying, "It's all done, come out."
"……OK."
The girl in black responded with a slight movement in her throat, then followed after them, carrying Xiao Lian on her back.
Chapter 140 The Entrance to Samuel's Clinic
The broken door slowly closed in the cold wind. Su Xiyun took one last look at the corpses scattered all over the tavern, carried Xiaolian on her back, and walked into the misty street.
Ye Xiao, who had orchestrated all of this, casually handed the knife in his hand to Su Qianyun, saying, "I almost forgot to return this to you."
Susie took the knife, swallowed hard, and said, "Isn't this a bit too much..."
